BGS Arrival

[Bdrosehn]

Over the summer i picked up a 1953 Yogi berra card at a yard sale for next to nothing... The card looked in decent shape for its age so i finally sent it into BGS for grading... Got the results in the mail today and it came back a 4.5. Can anyone give me a sorta resale value on this. thanks

A couple of other PSA 4's sold for between $50-55.

Based on these most recent eBay sales, I'd say you could get at least $60 and as high as $80. On a real real good day, you might get more considering one of the PSA 4's sold for over $150 which has to be an anomaly as far as sales go since PSA 5s did not sell for that price. I couldn't find any BGS graded Berra sales so I don't know how BGS and PSA will compare as far as sales, but they should be close. I think PSA is used more for vintage stuff, but don't quote me on that.
